This is a stark, unvarnished character study, immersing you in a single, intense day. It feels gritty and confrontational, exploring the immense strain of responsibility and the raw dynamics of authority and discipline. The 90s setting adds a layer of lived-in realism, making for a deeply felt, propulsive experience.
